Ancient Egyptian Perfumes.

Two ancient Egyptian perfumes have
been reconstructed through the re-
searches of young French professor
at Lyons, who has devoted himself to
studying Egyptian sepulture and the
plants of the Nile valley. BY hunting
through the papyrus texts and the in
scriptions on the walls of the temple
lavatories, he has found the recipes for
the manufacture of ''tasi'' and
"kyphi." The former was temple
perfume, used to annoint the statues
of the Egyptian Venus. ''Kyphr' was
more important, and besides being
used at home for the rights of Isis and
Scraps, was imported into Greece and
Rome after the conquest of Egypt. 1t
then became the favorite perfume
among the luxurious Greeks and
Romans, who were Amounted with
"kyphi'' after the bath, and were
sprinkled with the essence during the
grand banquets, while sometimes it
was used to perfume the wine. N 2.
